Evolutionary BiologyFutuyma (ecology and evolution, SUNY Stony Brook) covers such subject areas as phylogeny, paleobiology, genetic mechanisms of change and speciation, character evolution, the theory of processes and macroevolution, and new molecular perspectives. Numerous line drawings, charts, diagrams, and maps are provided. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR |

THE IMPORTANCE OF NEW MUTATIONS How important is the process of
mutation ? If there were no mutation , there would be no evolution ; but the
question is more meaningful if we ask whether mutation rates , or the kinds of
mutations that ...
